Disgruntled

The rantings of an angry woman.

Alright, I Give In.

Posted by Max Pilote on February 26, 2007

I think that I have reached a point in my life when I can write about the one thing I never see anything about. Thus, the title of this post.

Those involved in my creative writing class the actually read this sad little existence of a blog will know how much I have despised the Natalie Goldberg tapes and her droning, monotonous lectures on memoirs.

Yes, I do plan on writing something that is memoirish to an extent. It will be a combination of essays, creative writing journal entries, and memories of course.

I think it’s about time that people know what Multiple Hereditary Exostoses is and how it affects people. It’s a chapter of my life that I think I’ve left finished for the most part, I just need to write the epilogue.

I am well aware of how ludicrous the previous statement about MHE was as the mutation that I have is a very, very rare occurence–unless you live in Mexico. For some odd reason, a lot of people in South America seem to have it.

Anyways, I digress. I doubt anyone will actually want to read about MHE. It’s not something that people might really take seriously, but it has a deeper affect that most people would realize. Of course, most people just look at the surface.

Maybe that’s why I’m writing this. I need to show that people need to look at the bottom of the pool, not just the pretty water on the top.

I think including my rants and the like in there will help that.

Most of all, I think I need to justify to this world and to myself who I am and why I am that person. After all, I’m going to be famous one day.

    i’m guessing MHE is that whole tumors everywhere thing? that wasn’t supposed to sound rude. my apologies if it did. i’d be interested to read about MHE. i’m glad we’re both in creative writing, otherwise i never would have met you and heard any of your magnificent rants. they inspire me, cheesily enough. they get me all riled up and excited about stuff, and then i’m like, “do that one mo’ time, bitch, and i’ma go crazy on yo ass.” for the rest of the day. it’s good for getting work done. nothing pumps me up better than a good rant.

    and question– kevin tried to write like you? when was this?
